OF IT, II wonder whether the boys
in Ireland taught IL TO them or learned
il from them: know when / was a
youngster we Irish lads carried on the
sport TO an extent that led the game
keepers TO suspect that there were
more and shrewder poachers in that
part of the country than had ever been
bounded out of IL but they suspected
that the ragged, barefooted boy, who
whistled as he plucked the blackberries
from the hedges and would have been
as familiar with the mariners compass,
had IL been placed before him as with.
trout rod, creek-reel line, and cast
OF flies, was one of the themselves
culprits who caused the scarcity OF
trout. Yet so IL was. When the
keeper was well out OF sight the small
boy would throw away the blackberries
which he had col ected but did not care
to eat, and knowing by long experience
where the big speckled fellows loved
to Turk. ne would dart to deep still
spot, well shaded, and where the bank
overhung the water. Then crawling

until, with almost incredible gentleness,
their points touched the trout's
stomach, when slight oscillation was

part of the maneuver. The boys
thought the trout enjoyed 1t but
perhaps they supposed that 1t was
only the weeds softly brushing them.
Anyhow, IL rarely disturbed them and
the hand gradually assumed a surer
position, until, With a dexterous
movement, swift as the lightning
fash, the fish was cast out of the water,
generally upon the opposite bank.
The probability is that the trout so
captured is asleep, and though its eyes
are of course open, II can see nothing.

as IL were, by main strength. He just
puts his claw under the fish and casts

be a stupid fellow TO be SO easily taken.
